Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Brandied Cherry Clafouti

 

Ingredients

3 cup drained black or red
1 cherries
1 (preferably canned in
1 water)
1/4 cup brandy or cognac
2/3 cup sugar
1 butter for pan
2/3 cup all-purpose flour -- sifted
1 cup milk
3 large eggs
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp allspice
1 tbsp lemon zest
1/8 tsp salt
1 confectioners' sugar



 

Preparation

In nonreactive bowl, mix drained cherries, brandy and 1/3 cup of the
sugar. Let sit for 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Butter a 9-inch pie pan.

Place flour in medium bowl and make a well in the center.

Drain cherries, reserving the liquid. Pour liquid into a blender and
add remaining 1/3 cup sugar, plus the milk, eggs, vanilla, allspice,
lemon zest and salt. Blend well.

Pour liquid mixture into the well in the flour and blend into a smooth
batter. Spread cherries evenly in prepared pan. Pour batter over
fruit. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, then reduce heat to
350 and bake 45 to 50 minutes more until claf outi is puffy and
golden. (A sharp knife inserted in the center should come out clean.)
Let cool. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve warm.

NOTES : An adaptation of a recipe from New York chef and cooking
teacher Katherine Alford, this is elegant, impressive and easy to
make. In the summer you can make this with fresh cherries, but it
works just as well now with canned. Recipe By
